Lithium is a naturally occurring trace mineral. At the microgram-to-low-milligram doses found in supplements (far below psychiatric prescription doses), it modulates GSK-3β, supports the Nrf2 antioxidant response, and raises BDNF — pathways tied to neuroprotection and cellular stress resilience.
Low-dose lithium is one of the few interventions with a human population signal for longevity: across 1.2 million people, higher trace lithium in drinking water tracked with lower all-cause mortality, and it extends lifespan in C. elegans. It is also studied for telomere maintenance via telomerase (TERT). The linked study describes the mechanism and population association rather than this specific product; lithium has a narrow window, so dosing should be conservative and, ideally, supervised.

“We find an inverse correlation between drinking water lithium concentrations and all-cause mortality in 18 neighbouring Japanese municipalities (1,206,174 individuals)... a comparably low concentration of lithium extends lifespan of C. elegans.”
